Interior Review of the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid

One of the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid's best qualities is its interior's roominess. The three-row cabin offers 35.6inches of legroom at the rear, 40.5inches in the middle, and 41.1inches in front. The minimum cargo volume is 40.2 cubic feet, but it can go as high as 145.1 cubic feet with the stowed first and second-row seats.

Drivers also praise the cabin's premium materials and advanced technology. All trim levels of the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid have ventilated front seats. SynTex seat upholstery is standard in the LXS, EX, and SX, while the SX Prestige uses leather. Depending on the variant, interior accents vary between metal paint finish, hydrographic wood grain, or satin metal paint finish.

The 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid features a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment touchscreen with navigation. The LSX and EX have a 4.2-inch instrument display, but the SX and SX Prestige have a 12.3-inch curved one. An 11-inch heads-up display is exclusive to the SX Prestige.

Audio in the LXS goes to a six-speaker system. The EX and SX have eight speakers, while the SX Prestige has a 12-speaker Bose® Premium Audio System. Adual-screen rear seat entertainment system is available in the SX and SX Prestige trim levels.

Exterior Review of the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid

The striking design of the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid begins with its front fascia. Kia has done a marvelous job with the grille, with small rectangular bits that seem to cascade and grow as it rises to the top. It connects to dual LED projector headlamps with LED daytime running lamps on either side.

The profile of the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid showcases a large chrome fin on the C-Pillar that helps emphasize the breadth of the Carnival Hybrid's new body. Around the back are a shark's fin antenna, a rear spoiler with a built-in LED stop lamp, and a reflector bar connecting the slim rear combination lamps,

The minivan also has power-sliding doors and a smart power liftgate with an auto-close feature that makes passenger ingress/egress and cargo loading easy. All trim levels have roof rails, front and rear skid plates, and sound-absorbing windshield glass.

The LXS has 17-inch machined alloy wheels in a gloss-black finish. The EX and the SX trim levels sit on 19-inch alloy wheels with a black finish. Finally, the range-topping SX Prestige uses 19-inch alloy wheels with a gloss-black finish. All trim levels have a tire mobility kit to reduce weight and increase efficiency.

Power and Performance of the 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid

All 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid trim levels use a 1.6-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with double overhead camshafts, gasoline direct injection Continuously Variable Valve Timing, a 270-volt lithium-ion polymer battery, and a permanent magnet asynchronous motor.

The 2025 Kia Carnival's full parallel hybrid system sends 242 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque to the front-wheel-drive layout via a six-speed automatic transmission.

Cabin occupants enjoy a comfortable sedan-like ride thanks to the minivan's independent MacPherson struts, coil springs, and stabilizer bar in front. The rear sports independent multi-links and a stabilizer bar for stiffness to match its 2,500-pound towing capacity.
